no turbos?
hmm, I would have said a big air leak, so they don't spool. But if it came back, then maybe a turbo had seized, then finally free'd up again. Be interesting to know if starts happening on a regular basis

can a misfire or back fire in the system trigger saftey boost
and to add, it only really works up to about 3500rpm, at which point there's too much mechanical noise and the ecu ignores it

I have a TT subframe with solid bushings and adjustable arms etc, will be available soon as a package if you're interested

can a misfire or back fire in the system trigger saftey boost
no, an exhaust pop won't trigger the knock sensor

can a misfire or back fire in the system trigger saftey boost
safety boost will be cleared by turning ignition off/on ...

Anybody else interested in these if I order a set of them? Price will be £20 - £25 depending on customs and postage costs for me to forward

Trying to get in touch with Noz (Noel)
I was swapping texts with him this morning, yes he's busy but I'm sure he'll get back to you

New Compression Ratio
you should put a thicker head gasket on to compensate. In terms of compression ratio, depends how much boost you intend on running on which fuel

99 spec lightweight bumper :)
and the splitter will be chassis mounted, so no stress on bumper

99 spec lightweight bumper :)
it will be weaker, so it will most likely break if I hit it, however, I will also have a serious splitter fitted over the winter which should protect it, ie the splitter will be taking the hits / curbs !

99 spec lightweight bumper :)
Excellent work as always, looking forward to receiving it. The cars going on a diet hopefully to loose weight overall and offset a few other things that are being added. Something to keep me busy over the winter anyway!

stock headlight panel weight
That was quick! can you add another splitter too please as I've passed the other one on with my old bumper

Rollcages
Mine was made by Andy Robinson, all his are made to measure - not cheap though! Insurance - never been a problem Does it work, yes, it's instantly noticeable how much better the suspension works. Also, given both Bob and I have smacked the cars the damage hasn't been as bad as you'd expect. In terms of safety, hopefully I'll never find out

Keep the updates coming :) On the fuel tank, I think it's an interesting idea, my concern would be having it off centre will mean your diagonal weights will change with fuel level which could impact the handling

my shiny new turbos are here
i think mark derby has the same ones, very good turbos. be interesting to the see the results through the different phases. They are essentially the gt28rs but with a billet compresser wheel for less weights and a more modern design
